Sox Place is more than just a building located on 2017 Lawrence st. in Denver, Colorado. It is a place where hearts are poured out and relationships are made. Kids that are cold can find warmth. Kids that are hungry can find food, and the tired can find rest. This only scrapes the surface about what is being done here at Sox Place. Relationships are built with travelers and street youth, so that when they do visit our building they have a place they feel they belong.

From the beginning Sox Place was founded on faith, and faith alone. Over the thirteen years that Sox Place has been open, there have been times where money was scarce and just the ability to pay our rent seemed impossible. However, God has always provided for Sox Place, a check in the mail, a surprise donation or gift to cover the necessities. Sox Place is an organization that finds it’s certainty and builds it’s foundation on faith. If the money stops coming, then we know and trust that God might have a different plan and we remain obedient to Him and His word.

Recently we looked into our bank and we are currently sitting on $114 dollars. Are we worried? No. Are we panicking? No. We know and rest in the word of God that assures us no matter the circumstance, he is Lord. Just the other day one of our kids said that we have no idea what Sox Place has done for him and his life. We may never fully understand what this building has done for everyone who has walked through these doors. What we do know is we have a heart for these kids that aren’t being reached by many others. We ask you as supporters to consider giving to Sox Place, either on a monthly basis, or even a one time gift. Right now we are in prayer that we will receive the funds to make rent ($4300 per month). We are in prayer that our needs will be met, just like they have been met for the last thirteen years, month by month. We know that our God will provide if that is his will.

If you would like to contribute and be apart of the lives of street youth, please visit our donate page on our website. www.soxplace.com/donate. If you cannot make a donation to us at this time, please keep us in your prayers and thoughts that the right people will invest in Sox Place and help keep our doors open so that we can continue to provide for Denver’s street youth.
